Do you have a 1.8 or a 2.0? The schricks will soften up the bottom end a fair amount but absolutely rip up top. The blended combo works really well with our cars. The 260 will retain more low end than say the 268 intake.
As for the springs, that's a tough one. I can't recall if there were any markings on them to identify them as Schricks. I guess the only sure way to check them is to test the spring tension, but that's going to be kind of hard to do on the spot.

This may seem like too much of a bargain, but I am going to be able to see the cams before I pay the guy. The springs may be difficult, if not impossible, to verify they are authentic and new. Can someone share their opinions on this cam combo? Maybe I'll just get the cams, try em, and sell em if they aren't what I am looking for. Should it be hard to get most of the $450 back should I want the tt cams instead. Holland, you have this combo installed yet?
